On behalf of the EPPD, he went forward with no fear. He was a Warrior, and Warriors aren't meant to retire. Which means he's still here, the greatest of us, guiding us in eternity.

Deeply saddening that it takes losing a good man like Ofc Facio to show the less informed among us what a terribly dangerous role these officers - even patrol and traffic - willing submit to every day. Ride along, face that danger in REAL terms as they do, experience it, then and only then can you talk of wanting to "defund" and de-protect out vital police such as Ofc Facio. But of course those God-fearing and truly intelligent among us already know how facile such a position is. Walk with God Officer Facio, and may the evil that took him from us walk in opposite terms.

Officer Facio, a police officer, should be remembered not by how he died but by how he lived! A brave man has left to secure a safe path for the rest of us to follow. Thank you for your more than 3 years of commitment to law enforcement, your family, and the Apache Junction Bloomfield Police Department. Our country is a little less safe without you. Rest in Peace, Brother!

RIP Officer Facio. Your family will be in my family’s prayers. There are no words that are adequate at times like this, but I know that there is no greater love than to lay down one’s life for another-John 15:13.

Lord Jesus, as we watch America’s Peace Officers succumb to the wicked and evil in this world, it becomes difficult for us to pick up and move forward. Our communities are on the brink of exploding with tension. In light of the peace officers who are no longer with us, I pray for endurance for our communities and law enforcement agencies. Carry us through this time of strife, that through our struggles, our bonds may grow even more unbreakable. In Your mighty and holy name, and by Your Authority, I pray. Amen.

Biblical Scripture Verses of Encouragement, Hope, and Comfort:

“And I heard the voice of the Lord saying, “Whom shall I send, and who will go for us?” Then I said, “Here am I! Send me.” [Isaiah 6:8 ESV];

"Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me." [Psalm 23:4 ESV];

"Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called sons [children] of God." [Matthew 5:9 ESV], and;

"Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted." [Matthew 5:4 ESV].
